The Tasting Kitchen

Temporarily Closed.

The weekend brunch is famous at this Venice Beach restaurant, which was selected by food critic Alan Richman as one of the U.S.’s best in 2010. The menu is eclectic New American, with some Italian and French tossed in for good measure. If you don’t want to sit at the communal dining table, make a reservation for a table (though most enjoy being part of the Venice scene, which is chic, hip and fun).
